When installed modules didn’t available as commands over terminal, Do the following to fix.

Set your GOPATH and GOROOT.

GOPATH is your workspace.

GOROOT is where it is installed.

Open a terminal and run the following commands to make things work

export GOPATH=$HOME/go

or whatever your path and update system path.

export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin;

Now installed packages or modules available in your terminal.

or Place the above lines in your ~/.bash_profile and do the following

source ~/.bash_profile
